Lapdrop Expat Services: Garden care

About

A Spanish garden can get out of hand fast. Heat, summer drought, pests such as the red palm weevil or pine processionary caterpillars, and months away all take their toll. Lapdrop arranges garden care through vetted local gardeners across Spain, for villas, townhouses, fincas and holiday homes.

What we can arrange:

• Regular maintenance visits (weekly, fortnightly or monthly)
• Pruning of hedges, trees, palms and fruit trees
• Clearing overgrown plots and removing garden waste
• Setting up or repairing drip irrigation and timers
• Planting with water-wise Mediterranean species
• Lawn care, or replacing lawn with lower-maintenance options
• Pre-arrival and post-season tidy-ups for second homes

Tell us the size and type of garden, how often you want visits and where it is. Lapdrop matches you with a local gardener, shares the professional’s quote and schedule with you before anything is booked, and you decide whether to go ahead. Lapdrop stays your contact if anything needs changing. Local rules on water use, burning garden waste and tree work differ by municipality and season, so the gardener works within what your area allows. Available throughout Spain.
